Trans perineal biopsy.

Hello Palerma 

I am pleased your biopsy went well - and hope the results are OK.

Did you wish to post this on the Prostate Group?

Here's the link you need:

Prostate cancer forum 

Best wishes - Brian.

Thanks Brian, I’m a bit new to this so wasn’t sure where to post it

Hi Palerma

Millibob is right pointing you to the Prostate Cancer Forum - so much information on there.  I only got onto it a few weeks back but am finding it very helpful, and the good news stories are always good to read!

I too have had a TPB which did sound daunting at first but was relatively straightforward (I had a good surgeon). The worst bit was the freezing spray before the local anaesthetic injections and then the prodding with a needle to check if the anaesthetic had taken hold!! Bit uncomfortable during the biopsies (21 in total) but it all soon passes and then onto the next bit - the results and then the plan for the next stage, at which point it does seem to get better.

Do come back into the Prostate Cancer Forum with your results and ask of any advice - I have found some great support on here.

It is also helpful to us to see your profile, so have a go at that if you want to - perhaps include your results so that the experienced guys can assist even more.

Click on our names (in green) or the round graphic to the left of our names to see the profile/bio.

Keep positive!
